CDC pulls COVID jab recommendation for pregnant women and healthy children

In a major reversal, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the US has removed its recommendation for COVID-19 jabs for pregnant women and healthy children, marking a significant shift in U.S. health policy under the direction of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Kennedy, a long-time critic of mass vaccination campaigns, celebrated the decision as a step toward restoring medical integrity and public trust.

In a video posted on X, he stated, “We are now one step closer to realizing @POTUS’s promise to Make America Healthy Again,” aligning the move with President Donald Trump’s broader initiative to scale back bloated federal agencies and refocus healthcare priorities.

The CDC had previously urged everyone aged six months and older to receive updated COVID vaccines. But mounting evidence, including global trends and updated data, has led to growing doubts about the need for continued vaccination in low-risk groups. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reinforced this shift, with Commissioner Marty Makary confirming that there is “no credible data” justifying routine COVID shots for healthy children.

Makary added that most other developed nations have already ended similar recommendations for children, emphasising that the science no longer supports universal inoculation for the young and healthy. The move is also being interpreted as an acknowledgment that initial emergency pandemic measures have outlived their usefulness.

The Department of Health and Human Services echoed the sentiment: “With the COVID-19 pandemic behind us, it is time to move forward.”

The CDC’s own website still defends prior policies, citing studies suggesting vaccination during pregnancy could be beneficial. However, critics argue that these studies have often excluded long-term safety data and failed to consider natural immunity and risk-benefit balances in healthy populations.

Vaccine manufacturers Moderna and Pfizer have yet to comment on the decision, but the announcement comes just a week after the FDA said future COVID booster approvals will require new clinical trials.

  1. The day is very close when this covid jab is going to be exposed by Kennedy and Trump. Each nation will have to address the monster in the mirror.

    My warning to government that such a crime will not be limited to the US. There are laws in place to cover genocide in all its forms.

    This government should take heed that a new dawn of justice and democracy is going to arrive and those who did wrong and continue to do wrong will be punished accordingly.

  2. When I read the fine print, the evil continues. It’s just a removal of recommendations for the young and healthy and some pregnant women to be jabbed. The regime remains evil because it’s now simply targeting the weak and vulnerable instead of targeting everybody.

  3. Finally, we get to see “safe and effective” is anything but and “the one source of truth”, was the main source of vaccine lies.
